As the only nuclear-armed state that doesn’t acknowledge its possession of the bomb, Israel has created a special “bargain,” says Avner Cohen. Now, the rise of nuclear Iran, says the author of The Worst-Kept Secret, may threaten the subtle nuclear equilibrium that has dominated the Middle East in recent decades. Israel is now facing a unique and fateful dilemma, a challenge larger than any Israel has ever dealt with in the past. Cohen calls this “one of the most critical international issues of our day” and offers an appraisal of the dilemma. Thanks to Seattle Town Hall and Elliott Bay Books
